Page 1 of 2 A former photographer known as "Mr Paparazzi"
has been speaking about the unpublished photographs which are owned by
his agency in which Diana, Princess of Wales is seen close to death in
the aftermath of the Paris car crash.Interviewed by a newspaper in his Australian homeland, Darren Lyons has also revealed that he'll give evidence next Tuesday via video link from Sydney to the High Court inquest into the deaths of the princess and Dodi Fayed. 
These images were originally destined to be featured as a world exclusive on the front page of The News of The World on the morning of Sunday 31st August 1997. The first edition of the paper, which hit the streets before the Paris crash, had featured a story relating to the princess in which it was alleged that Prince William (then an Eton schoolboy) was preparing to confront his mother as he was unhappy about her relationship with playboy Dodi. 
The report continued: "The 15-year-old prince is deeply unhappy about the affair and has been worrying every since he returned from the South of France holiday where the royal romance began. He plans to confront Diana when they are reunited at Kensington Palace after her latest jet-set break with the Egyptian multi-millionaire." A royal insider was quoted as saying of William: "He doesn't think Mr Fayed is good for his mother. William can't help it, he just doesn't like the man". Within hours, this story was itself pulped as the paper's staff prepared for a world exclusive which was never destined to be seen. |
